| Tiivistelmä: | This paper deals with variants of a dynamic duopoly model with one firm having a stronger market position than its competitor. Consumers' past purchases may reveal their different valuations for the two firms' products. Price discrimination (henceforth as: p-d.) based on purchase histories tends to benefit consumers if it does not cause the weaker firm to exit. Otherwise it can harm consumers. The effect of p-d. also depends on firms' cost differences, market competitiveness, and consumers' time horizon. The stronger firm may price below cost with the purpose and effect of eliminating competition. |
